22 Week Bump Check



22 Week Bump Check
January 28, 2014





how far along:  22 weeks

size of baby:   according to the bump a papaya, between 10.5-11.8 inches long and weighing 12.7 to 20.8 ounces.  Baby girl is starting to sleep in cycles, roughly 12-14 hours a day.  

maternity clothes:  Yes, please. 

weight gain: 111 pounds,  lost 2 pounds! So I have gained +7 pounds total. I like that number a lot better. ; )

symptoms: Feeling better now that I have been eating better and exercising more frequently. No sign of any pass outs while working out, which makes me happy happy happy. Still taking it easy though. 

looking forward to: Continuing a healthy 
pregnancy! 

exercise: I have been doing my pregnancy work out videos a lot more and walking on the treadmill.  


cravings/aversions: Trying to cut out the processed foods, even if I crave them. I’m already starting not to miss them, yay! 


movement: I’m feeling the baby actually move now, not just kicks and jabs. That is my all time favorite thing. I’m also feeling them more frequently through out the day, but night time is  when the baby is the most active. 

sleep: Hips are actually starting to feel better. Either that, or I’m just getting used to it. 

gender: Made it through the Ultra Sound without finding out! Yay! I love not knowing. 

worries:  Trying not to worry about anything, it’s all in Gods hands. 


what's different this time:  Still very similar.  I think my belly even looks the same. 


milestones: Hmm.. not a clue. Making it 22 weeks happy and healthy!  

best moment this week: Not sure about this week, but I would have to say the ultra sound was the best moment a couple weeks ago. I LOVE getting to see our baby!

20 Week Bump Check

20 Week Bump Check
January 14,14

 Halfway There! 

how far along:  20 weeks

size of baby:  according to the bump a banana, about 6.5 inches long and weighing 10.2 ounces.  I have no idea what she is doing in there right now, lets just go with growing.

maternity clothes:  Yes, Yes! My belly really has “POPPED”J these last two weeks! It’s crazy what a different just a week or two can make! 

weight gain:  Umm I was 113 at the Dr.s this week, which means I have gained 9 pounds! Yikes! 

symptoms: Feeling good! Starting to get bigger and bigger!  

looking forward to:  Our Ultra sound this week!! Yayyyy! 


exercise: Pregnancy Project. 


cravings/aversions:  Well, considering I gained 9 pounds I am going to try my best to start eating better. I really don’t  know my weight gain at 20 weeks last time, but I’m pretty sure it wasn’t 9 pounds. Time to give up cookies and bagels I guess. ;/


movement: Jake felt the baby for the first time this week!! Feeling the baby at night a lot! I love it. 

sleep: Hips are starting to hurt, dang it! I forgot this all happened this soon. I have to alternate sides a lot which doesn’t help, but I would say sleep is not too bad. 


gender: Hoping we don’t see anything on the ultra sound this week! 

worries:  Trying not to worry about anything, it’s all in Gods hands. 


what's different this time:  Still very similar.  I think my belly even looks the same. 


milestones: Halfway there!!!

best moment this week: Jake feeling the baby. ; ) Such a neat experience. 


 I can’t believe this second pregnancy is already halfway over with. Time is seriously FLYING! I am getting sooo anxious to meet our new baby, but I need to keep in mind that these next 5 months are the last months with just Me, Jake and our wonderful daughter. Life is so good.
